Had a leaking roof and contacted colin who was kind enough to visit the next again morning. He examined the felting and tests the drainage identifying that it was in fact a plumbing issue. Despite his time he wouldnt accept any payment instead suggesting a just leave a review.
Nice chap , really helpful. Would 100% use again

From start to finish the team were professional, punctual and very respectful. All the work that needed carried out was explained thoroughly. Colin and Maryann (Business owners) kept me fully upto date througout the repairs.
The workmanship is excellent and the area was always left clean and tidy everyday. I am so happy that the roof is all fixed for the winter arriving and wouldn't hesitate to use them and recommend them again.
Fantastic service all round.

L&E Roofing responded promptly to my initial enquiry, provided a competitive quotation and were very flexible about fitting around my building project. Overall management of the project by Colin was excellent, very customer focussed and end result is a very high standard of finish. Would recommend this company to others and would use again myself in the future.

Building of six flats (including a council owned flat), needing work done to roof/guttering/downpipes in response to an ESRS survey.
Colin came to give us an initial quote and visited later again in person after questions from owners in the building to give a follow-up quote for extra pieces; he wanted to see for himself rather than relying on photos I had sent, which I appreciated.
He was very flexible when it came to working with us as a group of owners and had the patience to work alongside us with the council side of things.
Once we had a scheme decision from all owners and a confirmation letter from the council, he booked us in within a week or so.
The scaffolding went up and they went to work, fixing various aspects of our roof slating, the harling in many places we'd identified, replacing the metal guttering entirely and renovating/painting the downpipes and replacing sections. During the work he sent photos of what had been done, which the council also appreciated seeing as work progressed.
Part way through the work, a comment was made that the valleys could do with treating to preserve the metal. The communication around it was a bit rushed but a small quote was given for it, we got all the owners' agreements and the work was added to the final bill and the council's application with no issues.
Through the work, his team was polite and efficient, completing a lot of work across the 3-4 weeks they were here.

Colin and the team completed significant repair work to outhouse roof making the entire structure totally sound. The whole process, - from initial contact, through negotiation, discussions, and all aspects of works right to the end result was excellent. The team were very professional, skilled and thoroughly reliable throughout, leaving the site in excellent order. Colin himself was absolutely great and kept us informed and updated at every stage. I highly recommend the company.

After reading all the positive reviews on here, contacted L&E to get our gutters cleared. Prompt, friendly and efficient communication from MaryAnn. Turned up when they said they would, cleared all the debris from the gutters and took it all away. Happy customer, would recommend.

Colin was quick to respond and inspect the site, was clear and effective in his communications and provided a very professional service replacing zinc and hip ridges and many missing slates as well as remortaring the skews. The job was completed quickly and to a high standard, and even a few extra slates were replaced at no additional cost. Colin was extremely professional throughout. Thoroughly recommended.

I was let down very badly by a company hired to replace my roof to the point the new roof had to be entirely removed and replaced. When work was quoted for they explained clearly how they would approach the work and what would be done/what was included in quote.
I was kept up to date with expected start date for work and sent regular progress updates once it started. The work was completed in 2 weeks (did get lucky with the weather enabling this). The team were polite and respectful.
Very pleased with finished roof.

Contacted L & E Roofing and had within a couple of days had a visit and a quote and an honest and professional assessment of what work was required.
A week later the roof was repaired by experienced roofers who, on completion, left the site clean and tidy.
Based on this experience, I would not hesitate in recommending L & E.
Thank you for a good job done well.

I contacted Colin to enquire if it would be possible to get an assessment after a tile fell of my roof and others looked a tad suspect. I also asked if he would look at a leaking gutter that dripped onto my conservatory roof. He responded quickly, came out to take a look within a matter of days and provided an estimate that same evening. He was professional and understanding in his assessment and assured me it was not a major issue and not to worry and he would get it done as soon as possible. His estimate was fair, his attitude and approach spot on. He carried out the work on the roof, mended the offending bit of guttering and left no mess. I would, and indeed already have recommended him to others. He has a manner that is reassuring to the older generation like myself. Gold standard in my view.

Super efficient right from initial contact. Quickly out to inspect roof and provided quote that afternoon. Happy to accept it and they were able to carry out works sooner than we expected.
Boys were a pleasure to deal with, very happy with standard of work carried out. Would certainly recommend and would definitely use again.

After dealing with 3 companies who did not repair the roof leak, my fault for not checking out Trusted Trader, I contacted L&E Roofing who replied quickly, came out to look at the job next day and while he was here I asked about painting the gutters and downpipes. He emailed a very reasonable quote within a few hours and fitted me into his schedule a couple of weeks later. Colin and his team are highly professional, reliable and trustworthy. A first class job and would highly recommend.

Leaky gutters removed and replaced on semi-detached house. Colin responded quickly to our initial request and provided estimate the same day he surveyed the gutters.
Colin and Dylan carried out the work efficiently in one day. The communication from Colin was excellent and I have no hesitation in recommending L & E Roofing. They also offer an annual roof inspection which we will be taking up.
